Zenaya's remorse

Chapter 9: Painful Memory.

School graduation day arrives. Now the final students are having a school farewell party. Many of them brought their partners there, including the three best friends of Zenaya. In contrast to his three best friends, Zenaya confidently came alone without inviting anyone. At first he wanted to invite the brother who happened to be off and go home, but the date schedule with his lover can not be contested.

Despite coming alone, his three best friends are still kind enough to invite Zenaya to join their table. Their partner did not mind when Zenaya was invited to go down to the dance floor.

"I'm tired. You guys just continue. The song has also turned romantic. I had to dance alone like crazy." Zenaya chuckled, and hurried back to sit at his desk.

Even without a partner, Zenaya can still enjoy the party. After all, not only did she come without a partner, there were also some other students who chose to come alone or with their friends.

The eyes of Zenaya who was busy exploring the school hall suddenly stopped on the figure of a man, who was sitting not far from his desk. He is a Reagent. The man looked very handsome and dignified wearing a black tuxedo. She looks like she's got Natalie sitting next to her in a sexy dress.

Zenaya smiled bitterly. But not on his jealousy (he had no sense of it), but on his stupidity all along.

Natalie who clearly has a near-perfect physique, and has approached him for a year, never once asked to be the man's lover. So, how could Reagents ask Zenaya to be his lover, even though they never really knew each other.

Zenaya laughed at her stupidity once again. The hatred for that man grew more and more.

The girl looked back at Reagen, but it turned out that Reagen was also looking back at her. The look on Zenaya's eyes instantly turned cold. He got up from his seat and left.

Zenaya chose to stay away from the crowd. He came to a garden, where bitter memories began.

The park looks so beautiful at night. Luckily, the place looks very quiet now. Perhaps, because the invited guests were engrossed in enjoying the party inside the hall. So, Zenaya can freely comfort themselves in one corner of the place, while paying attention to the various flowers there.

"Zensen,"

The girl continued to flinch when she found Reagent already standing before her.

It used to be that Zenaya's heartbeat rumbled every time she faced the Reagents. But this time he did not feel it anymore. Zenaya no longer felt a warm touch on her heart. Precisely now, just by looking at Reagen's face from afar had made the wounds of Zenaya who had not been closed completely, open again.

Zenaya looked at the man with a hateful expression.

"Me, want–"

Reagen's words came to a halt, as Zenaya suddenly walked over and slapped a slap with all her might. He knew it must have been very painful. However, the pain that the man felt would never be comparable to his already broken heart in pieces.

Reagen's footrest faltered for a moment because he was not ready to accept Zenaya's slap. However, his facial expression was not at all surprised. By the way, he had already guessed what the girl would do, if she tried to approach him again.

Zenaya raised her head, while putting on a haughty look. He stared intently at the look in Reagen's eyes, who was now looking at him with sadness.

"Stop that fake look of yours!" exclaiming Zenaya cold.

"Give me a chance to explain all this." Reagen tries to get close to Zenaya again, but the girl immediately shouts, and tells him to stop in place.

"I don't need any more explanation." Zenaya prepared to leave the Reagents.

"Zen–"

"Stop saying my name with your trash mouth!" zenaya shouted. The girl's breath was seen hunting as it held back emotions. His eyes are also dewy. He wanted to hit hard on his chest, so that the pain that came back could be slightly reduced.

"Behold, in my heart now there is only hatred that will always be ingrained for you." After saying so, Zenaya walked past the Reagents. He accidentally hit Reagen's arm making the man almost staggered.

Reagents can only be silent. His body was unable to move to hold back Zenaya, even though his heart had already shouted and told him to chase after the girl.

Zenaya chose to leave the party without saying goodbye to her three best friends. He drove his car as fast as he could to get away from the place.

A place that has inscribed many stories, especially bitter stories that will imprint in his memory until anytime.

Zenaya promised never to set foot back there. He would bury deeply all these painful memories along with the wounds of his heart.

...***...

"This is the report requested this morning, ma'am." A woman placed a stack of files on her superior table.

"Thank you, Jill," said Zenaya without turning her eyes to the other files she was working on. His hand then busy typing reports on the laptop for a while, before finally closing the laptop.

Zenaya has now grown into a full-grown girl. He successfully completed S1 Business Management Department, and S2 Finance Management Department.

After completing his S1, Zenaya was immediately asked to work by his father at their hospital, Winston General Hospital, as an ordinary employee. Thanks to his ability to do work, now Zenaya was appointed as the Hospital Finance Manager.

The sound of knocking on the door sounded a moment later. No need to ask, he already knew who always came to his room, every hour lunch break arrived.

"Eat .. eat!" Grace opened the door to Zenaya's room a little. The newly married woman 6 months ago then entered the room of his best friend.

Grace, who is known to have an explosive personality, is now transformed into a sweet graceful woman. He is one of the doctors in this hospital, and is taking a specialist doctor education program.

Success is not only achieved by Zenaya and Grace. His two best friends, Emily and Alice, also have very good lives. Emily is now busy helping her husband's five-star restaurant business, while Alice lives happily with her small family, and is traveling the world in an indefinite amount of time. Among the four of them is indeed only Zenaya who does not have a life partner.

The vow he had uttered ten years ago was completely kept by him. Until now, Zenaya had never been in a relationship with any man. His heart was never stirred, when several times his three best friends tried to introduce himself to an established man.

Of course he still likes the opposite sex, only the trauma he got first really stuck in Zenaya's heart. The girl was afraid of being played. He assumed all the men who approached him never had good intentions.

Zenaya enjoyed her solitude very much, and did not really care about the concerns of her parents. Times have changed, many girls are married at the age of four heads, so, she still has plenty of time.

"Yeah!" Zenaya got up from her seat and walked over to Grace. They left Zenaya's room for lunch.

"You must be very tired" Zenaya said as soon as they reached the hospital lobby. Both of them prefer to eat lunch at a stall on the side of the road than in the hospital canteen.

"Obviously. You know for yourself that my stamina even exceeds that of a bodybuilder." Grace shrugged her shoulders and laughed.

Zenaya shook her head. They also chatted lightly while coming out of the hospital.

The second step stopped when an ambulance stopped right in front of the ER door, which was right next to them.

The ambulance driver got out of the car and opened the back door.

Brankar. Several nurses and doctors were immediately out of the ER room. Blood flows from the patient's head.

"The patient had a bump on his head and broke his right arm. His blood pressure is at 80/60mmHg, and his oxygen saturation is below 80, doc!" one of the ambulance medics.

"Prepare ventilator. We need a CT scan, too, "ask the doctor to look after one of the nurses who went with him.

"Good, doc."

Zenaya's body stiffened as the gurney carrying the patient passed through her and Grace. The girl was unable to move.

Although ten years had passed, and his face was now filled with blood, Zenaya was still able to recognize the man.

"Rey!" the screams of a woman who had just come out of the car broke the daydream of Zenaya.

The woman was crying hysterically as she ran into the ER room with two other men.

"Zen," call Grace carefully. He touched Zenaya's arm gently.

As if she was conscious, Zenaya turned to look at Grace.

"You seen him?" ask Grace. His eyes stared at the friend.

Knowing that no words could come out of Zenaya's mouth, Grace held the girl's hand and squeezed her hard.
